  • Title: [Use of glucagon in the reduction of intussusception; presentation of one case (author's transl)].
    Author: Lanocita M, Castiglioni G.
    Journal: Radiol Med; 1980; 66(7-8):513-6. PubMed ID: 7221067.
    Abstract:
    Intramuscular glucagon was used in one patient with ileocolic intussusception when standard therapeutic barium enema reduction failed. Reduction was accomplished following administration of glucagon and a repeat barium enema. Use of the two methods together may improve the success rate of nonoperative reduction of intussusception.
